my lfs is selling lyretail athius for $25 ea. to my understanding, these are schoolers; can I get 1 and then add 2 at a later date or 2 and do the same for 1? They would be going into my 75g. Thanks.

I am always kidding my wife about wanting a million dollars and a mermaid when she asks me what I want for Christmas and my birthday, and yesterday I saw this little plastic mermaid that one would put into a freshwater tank. Are they safe for saltwater?

What size Koralia pump would be good with a 14g BioCube? Right now there is very little water flow in my son's tank and I think it needs way more than what it has. Livestock wise...he will have 2 cardinals (after i remove the 3stripe damsel), 1 shroom and several zooas. The LFS has...

The LFS wants to sell this to me for $20. What is it? It was fragged and sold to the LFS about a week ago.

I have decided that I want more fish than corals for the time being. I will still have some corals, but I am going to stick with zooas, my frogspawn, mushrooms and a few hammer heads. 75g tank, oversized protein skimmer, 2 koralia 4's, more live rock than i think i need -and shop lights with...

Hello, I have a Current USA Extreme light set for a 75g tank. Or used to have.......yesteday, i learned that evaporation has to go somewhere and my lights fizzled. I am not on the lookout for an inexpensive way to get light into my tank. I have mostly easy corals, like zoos and shroms with...

hey there, My mother is looking to purchase a HOB protein skimmer for my brother's 30g tank. She wants to spend around $75 and get the best she can. He currently has a 10yr old Prizm that barely works. In his tank I think are 2 fish, and about 20 small shrooms. What would you suggest...

Its true there are bubbles everywhere?!?!?!? All over the rocks, corals, etc. The water level is good as I check it when i get home everyday. what the heck is going on? Also,There is some sizable green algea building up on the sand but I am sure that its there because the white light has...

For some reason unknown to me, my zooas, the brown with green insides, are not all opening like they should. Two weeks ago, they started this half open, half closed thing. I watched them and then thought that since my frogspawn was grown and they were close that I shoudl move htem. I put...

OMG - http://www.zoaid.com/; there absolutely beautiful zoo on that website. My wish list: Superman/Spiderman Shiznit Oxide Wrath of God DarthMaul Blue magicians Nighmare Nuclear Blues Please provide your own wish list and pics.....I want to drool more.

Well, I just fragged my first coral on purpose. I bought a 3"x3" frag of baby blue polyps and when the LFS guy picked it up , it wasnt attached to anything. So, I purchased a fragging kit, a pair of gloves and a pair of tweezers and cut it to pieces.....I hope they all made it. BTW I...

Hey, A buddy of mine stopped by a home that has all his frags listed on craigslist and he brought back 3 frags of monti for me. Its great and I am psyched that he did it, but i do not know how to grow them or where to put them. 2 were on frag disks so I stuck them in the sand and the...

Ok, I will be picking up my son's bio cube today (http://www.reefsanctuary.com/forums/drygoods-sale-trade/37212-lf-small-bio-cube-christmas-my-son.html). He wants black sand (its bio ready sand) with white specs in it. Are there any pros/cons with going with black sand versus the standard...

I currently have a six line wrasse in my tank and I am thinking about what the LFS calls a Christmas Wrasse (they say its reef safe) as an adder. All my tank info in in my signature. Is it possible to do it? thanks, Gumby

Hello, My 13yr old son has expressed an interest in a small tank and I thought the bio-cube would be the way to go. After being around SW tanks for most of his life, it would be the only way for him to go. Rather than dropping alot on a brand new one, I am thinking of looking for a used...

For the past 15 min since I have been watching, my smaller clown has been chasing my larger clown around the tank wagging his tail at the bigger clown. Sometimes the little guy is almost vertical while wagging his tail. Since I dont know, is this a mating dance? or is it wishful...

Ok, I did a 20% water change (bought water from the LFS) on Sunday and since then, I have had alot more bubbles and no foam. And lots more bubbles in my tank. Have I done something wrong or is the system working like it should? Ammonia =0 Nitrites = 0 Nitrate = 0 salinity is 1.025

Looking at my lighting and skimmer, etc, what can i put in my tank. I would consider myself a beginner reefer so please consider that when offering up your thoughts. And please post pics as I can use the pics to get my wife to cave in on purchases. I do better with lower prices as well...
